Q&A with Audience

The Minnesota Senate passed the omnibus jobs, energy and commerce bill following an extended floor debate Monday, April 29.
In the area of economic development, the measure provides funding for several efforts, including combating labor trafficking, wage theft, vocational rehabilitation and job training.
The bill contains a controversial provision that would retroactively remove the minimum wage increase passed by the cities of Minneapolis, St. Paul and Duluth. According to the bill's author, Senator Eric Pratt, R-Prior Lake, setting labor standards should be handled by the state rather than by local units. An amendment offered by Senator Scott Dibble, DFL-Minneapolis, failed to win majority support.
In the area of energy, the bill would create a solar grant program for schools, remove the moratorium on nuclear energy and lift the cap on hydropower production. It also would help fund the expansion of electric vehicle charging stations at businesses and government agencies through a revolving loan fund that would be repaid through user fees.

The NCLEX exam can be a frightening moment in any nursing student’s career. Long hours of study, lecture, and clinicals have been finished and now comes the moment to take the big test.
Download a free NCLEX course description and overview at http://bit.ly/nclexoverview
This knowledge-based AND strategies-based course is designed to prepare the registered and practical nurse student to take the NCLEX exam and be successful. It is also designed as a preparation course for the HESI if a college requires the student to take this as an exit exam. The segments cover all aspects of disease conditions and pathology, pharmacology, lab analysis, clinical correlation, and critical thinking needed to excel and pass! In addition, test-taking strategies and review questions are incorporated throughout to help find the most correct answer.
The extensive 400-plus page text gives a comprehensive review of all aspects covered in the course and provides an invaluable study packet in addition to other resources the student will be using to prepare for the exam. Throughout the text are “bolded” drugs, labs, assessments, and facts the student should focus on for the exam.
When a student takes a “live” course, it is offered over 3 full days. The on-line program is a total of 53 segments of approximately 30 minutes each to make the course manageable for the student. Each segment contains the lecture in full HD videos to help the student “see” pathophysiology, assessment abnormalities, and diagnostic tests AND questions to reinforce the knowledge covered and test-taking hints. Students have access to the on-line course for a full three months after they complete their registration.
Once a student purchases this course, an e-mail will be sent to them acknowledging receipt (within 24 hours) and within 1-2 business days, a packet will be mailed to them containing the course text, registration instructions, and extra study guides and materials.

About St. Petersburg College:
In 1927, St. Petersburg College (then known as St. Petersburg Junior College) became Florida's first private, non-profit, two-year school of higher learning located in downtown St. Petersburg. Full accreditation followed in 1931 and in 1948 SPC became a public college.
In June 2001, SPJC officially became St. Petersburg College when Florida's governor signed legislation making it the first community college in Florida to offer four-year degrees. On Dec. 11, 2001, the college received the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools' accreditation to offer courses leading to bachelor's degrees.
In 2002, St. Petersburg College began offering courses leading to bachelor's degrees in Education, Nursing and Technology Management. The college's commitment to its two-year curriculum, which has earned it wide recognition and annually wins it high national rankings, remains as strong as ever.
Today, SPC has ten learning sites throughout Pinellas County and recently became the first college in Florida to offer a four-year degree in Dental Hygiene. This program's offerings augment its two-year program, which has been in operation since 1963. SPC added four-year degrees in Veterinary Technology, Public Safety Administration and Orthotics and Prosthetics in 2005.
College Accreditation

A doctorate is an academic degree or professional degree that, in most countries, qualifies the holder to teach at the university level in the specific field of his or her degree, or to work in a specific profession. In some countries, the highest degree in a given field is called a terminal degree, although this is by no means universal (the term is not in general use in the UK, for example), and practice varies from country to country. The term doctorate comes from the Latin docere, meaning "to teach."

Category management is a retailing and purchasing concept in which the range of products purchased by a business organization or sold by a retailer is broken down into discrete groups of similar or related products; these groups are known as product categories (examples of grocery categories might be: tinned fish, washing detergent, toothpastes). It is a systematic, disciplined approach to managing a product category as a strategic business unit. The phrase "category management" was coined by Brian F. Harris.

When it comes to selecting the right sites for Phase 1 clinical trials, typical criteria includes some combination of the following factors:
-Experience of PI/Nursing Staff
-Bed space
-Access to the patient population
-Access to the necessary equipment to operationalize the study
-Experience in similar studies
-Geographic location
-Enrollment capability
-Contract/budget negotiation structure
-Regulatory history
-Cost
However, when clinical Phase 1 units fulfill the items on the checklist, a deep analysis of their operations tends to be forgotten, leaving other critical factors overlooked during site selection, such as:
1.Internal costing exercises
2.Staff optimization
3.Risk Mitigation and Contingency Planning
4.Vendor Usage and Selection
5.Execution of complex protocol requirements
In this webinar, WCCT Global discussed the importance of evaluating these five factors during the selection of Phase 1 clinical sites for large early clinical development programs.

Nursing is a profession within the health care sector focused on the care of individuals, families, and communities so they may attain, maintain, or recover optimal health and quality of life.
Nurses may be differentiated from other health care providers by their approach to patient care, training, and scope of practice. Nurses practice in a wide diversity of practice areas with a different scope of practice and level of prescriber authority in each. Many nurses provide care within the ordering scope of physicians, and this traditional role has come to shape the historic public image of nurses as care providers. However, nurses are permitted by most jurisdictions to practice independently in a variety of settings depending on training level. In the postwar period, nurse education has undergone a process of diversification towards advanced and specialized credentials, and many of the traditional regulations and provider roles are changing.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

Nursing is a profession within the health care sector focused on the care of individuals, families, and communities so they may attain, maintain, or recover optimal health and quality of life. Nurses may be differentiated from other health care providers by their approach to patient care, training, and scope of practice. Nurses practice in many specialties with differing levels of prescription authority. Many nurses provide care within the ordering scope of physicians, and this traditional role has shaped the public image of nurses as care providers. However, nurse practitioners are permitted by most jurisdictions to practice independently in a variety of settings. In the postwar period, nurse education has undergone a process of diversification towards advanced and specialized credentials, and many of the traditional regulations and provider roles are changing.Nurses develop a plan of care, working collaboratively with physicians, therapists, the patient, the patient's family and other team members, that focuses on treating illness to improve quality of life. In the United States and the United Kingdom, advanced practice nurses, such as clinical nurse specialists and nurse practitioners, diagnose health problems and prescribe medications and other therapies, depending on individual state regulations. Nurses may help coordinate the patient care performed by other members of a multidisciplinary health care team such as therapists, medical practitioners and dietitians. Nurses provide care both interdependently, for example, with physicians, and independently as nursing professionals.

September 1, 2011. PARCC Labor Studies Group Panel discussion. Recruited to the United States on H-2 visas, guestworkers are subjected to extreme labor exploitation. Bound to a single employer by the terms of their visas and embroiled in complex and costly recruitment and subcontracting arrangements, guestworkers lack the ability to organize, collectively bargain and otherwise challenge their working and living conditions. This event takes advantage of Syracuse's distinction as host to the Great New York State Fair, an event during which, in 2010, the conditions faced by guestworkers were brought to light after a food contractor was found guilty of wage theft and human trafficking of at least nineteen Mexican guestworkers. The speakers at this event will discuss the political-economy of U.S. guestworker programs, describe the conditions faced by guestworkers in the seafood processing and fair/carnival industries and highlight innovative local and transnational forms of organizing and advocacy aimed at improving the working conditions faced by these "excluded workers."

SUMMARY
=======
Chemical warfare (CW) involves using the toxic properties of chemical substances as weapons. This type of warfare is distinct from nuclear warfare and biological warfare, which together make up NBC, the military acronym for nuclear, biological, and chemical (warfare or weapons), all of which are considered "weapons of mass destruction" (WMDs). None of these fall under the term conventional weapons which are primarily effective due to their destructive potential. In theory, with proper protective equipment, training, and decontamination measures, the primary effects of chemical weapons can be overcome. In practice, they continue to cause much suffering, as most victims are defenceless civilians. Many nations possess vast stockpiles of weaponized agents in preparation for wartime use. The threat and the perceived threat have become strategic tools in planning both measures and counter-measures.
The use of chemical weapons is prohibited under customary international humanitarian law.
